DIY Mother’s Day Flower Pots!

Don’t look now, but Mother’s Day will soon be here!Mother’s Day is a treasured day for new mothers as well as mothers who now have grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Gifts will be received and restaurants will be visited and maybe special meals planned.

Mother’s Day cards selected by our husbands or family members, the sweet aroma from a fresh bouquet of flowers and chocolate will be received on this day.

However, there is nothing more treasured for Mother’s Day than hand-made gifts. I love every gift and picture my kids give me. I thought I would share this cute craft idea for a Mother’s Day gift!

Directions

1. Paint the pot with the color of your choice and let dry. 2. Cut foam pieces to fit down inside the bottom of the pot. 3. For the paper flowers, cut out a flower shape of your choice and cut a smaller version of the same flower. Glue the smaller one to the top of the larger one. 4. As an optional step, your child can glue a tiny picture of themselves to the center of the flower. 5. Using the floral tape, wrap the 6-inch dowel rod. 6. Glue the flower on the top of the dowel rod. 7. Poke the dowel rod stem into the foam in the bottom of the pot. 8. Place a little piece of the floral moss inside the pot. 9. Decorate with stickers.
